Message: [QUOTE="tep624, post: 2158957, member: 430"] Why in the world would we want UCONN in the ACC...there is not added value whatsoever. We don't pick up a market, we don't gain a recruiting advantage for the conference, we gain absolutely nothing by adding them. No historical value in Football, no rivalry value in Football at all with anyone, and we just add another Northeast mouth to feed in what already is a saturated area from a recruiting perspective with BC, Syracuse, Pitt, Penn State, WV, Maryland and Rutgers all in P5 conferences. I guess you could make an argument if by adding them, you carried NYC television sets but in general people in NYC couldn't give a crap about UCONN Football. Dumb with a capital D. A significant Texas school makes a ton of sense because it checks all the boxes - new market, access to fertile recruiting grounds, television viewer interest in the state, historical value, etc. [/QUOTE]
